Latencies to initiate tail-flips in response to shadows of different velocities. Latencies are measured between the time when shadows first became visible and the time when the animals activated the MG neurons to produce a tail-flip. Response latencies are longer for slower shadows than faster shadows. The measured differences in response latencies are statistically significant. ** = p ≤ 0.01.
